Air Canada expands intermodal travel offerings in Europe and Asia

Air Canada is continuing its strategy of offering travellers combined air, rail and bus travel and has launched new connections in several European countries and South Korea.

In collaboration with railway companies such as SNCF in France, Deutsche Bahn, SBB in Switzerland and ÖBB in Austria, passengers can book seamless connections to numerous destinations within these countries. The expansion to other countries in Europe and Asia complements Air Canada's existing offering, which has already been available in Germany, France, Switzerland and Austria since December 2023.

The program is intended to offer travelers not only additional flexibility, but also more environmentally friendly transport options. Customers can book train connections to cities such as Nantes, Bordeaux, Marseille, Frankfurt or Zurich directly when purchasing their flight ticket. Air Canada also plans to expand its cooperations as part of the "Lufthansa Express Rail" program to give customers even better access to European destinations.

With this new option, passengers can not only save time by booking through tickets and checking in for all legs in advance, but also benefit from automated rebooking in the event of delays. Air Canada expects that the combined air-rail service will not only offer more travel comfort, but also reduce CO₂ emissions in travel.
